This Turns Out To Be A Hakata Doll, Not A Kokeshi. Thank You @kojiiwata For Letting Me Know!!
This turns out to be a Hakata doll, not a Kokeshi. Thank you @kojiiwata for letting me know!!
More info about these dolls that I looked up on the internet;
A Hakata doll is a traditional Japanese clay doll that originated in Fukuoka (formerly known as Hakata), on the island of Kyushu. These dolls are typically hand-crafted and painted, known for their realistic details, soft colors, and serene expressions.
This is the modern version of a kokeshi (こけし) doll. Though they are usually made of wood, the ones used as decorations or souvenirs are often made of clay, ceramic, or other materials.

I received this on my birthday back in 2014. I wasn’t a big fan of it then, but I like it now. I consider it vintage, though I’m not sure how others see it.
I left home around 7:30 in the morning and went to Agra to take an exam. B-school entrance exams are held only in a few cities. I came back home around 9:30 PM. I think we should have left a bit later because it wasn’t that far away. I also saw the Agra Fort, but only from the outside because it was extremely hot, and besides, visiting the fort properly takes an entire day. The exam didn’t go as well as I had expected. The Quant section was pretty hard.

I've made a decent study plan for my upcoming exams, though I'll admit I'm very scared. Also, I've finally decided to add dried snapdragon (flowers) to my commonplace notebook. We'll be moving out in a month, and I'll have to leave this beautiful garden behind as well. I've spent more than twelve years here, so I'm drying some flowers from the garden and placing them at random pages in my notebook.

I'm getting very stressed these days because my high school finals results will be declared soon. I know I didn't do well, so I just hope I pass and achieve the required percentage to get into universities. My first entrance exam didn't go well either. I plan to post everything I do — for example, if I finish one or two topics, I'll post about it. Maybe this will satisfy my brain and give it enough dopamine so that I don't procrastinate. Tommorow, I plan to complete Set Theory, Statistics, Sequences and Series, Permutations and Combinations, and maybe Linear Equations as well if I have some time left.
